Percentile across ~4,600 US stocks on Ticker Nerd’s systematic factor model. Higher is better. How the model is built and tested
Revisions (95): Analysts have, on balance, been raising their forecasts.
Momentum (56): The shares have been drifting down relative to others.
Size (24): Larger than most of the companies we track — more scrutinised, less often mispriced.

As of 23 October 2026, our factor model ranks Workiva 98.3 of 100 among the US stocks it tracks, and 5th of 198 in its software industry. Estimate Revisions (95.8), Quality (88.6) and Investment/Accruals (90.0), the check that profit is backed by cash, carry the rank. Market size (23.5) and Momentum (57.8) are the drags, with price velocity at 17.7.
The Street and the model point the same way: all 11 analysts rate the stock buy or strong buy, with no holds or sells. Their average target is $89.80, above the 23 October 2026 close of $85.80. Consensus earnings per share for the current year rose 15.5% in the 90 days to 20 October 2026, with 10 upgrades and no cuts in the past month.
Workiva reports third-quarter results on 5 November 2026, and the Surprise factor (99.9) is the reading most exposed to those numbers. Momentum is the family that could turn: the shares rose 69.3% in the three months to 23 October 2026, yet the model's velocity reading is 17.7. A Seeking Alpha report says 2027 margin targets may be reached a year early, with full-year non-GAAP operating margin guided to about 18% and free cash flow margin about 21%.
